Welcome to the new forum.
After some discussion with a few members we have decided to entertain the idea of a new forum.
The reason being that the old forum is based on old software which does not allow for a proper search function and the fact that the old forum is rather hard to navigate among other things. Another big reason for moving is improved security. The old forum had no "anti-bot" registration in place, which meant the forum would constantly be littered with spam. To counter said problem, one could only register after the approval of a moderator. This caused a decline in new memberships.
The new forum includes many new futures like "anti-bot" registration, proper mobile comparability, browser spell check and Tapatalk Integration.
The downside to all this though is that the older forum is so outdated that we are unable to move the database with all the old posts. This means everyone will need to re-register and repost the content, like their build threads, if they wish to preserve it.
We hope to build a large community with many active members.
Regards
pXius
